[quote=Anonymous]I’m in my 50’s and agree with 10:54. Fancy coffee drinks, eating out, portion sizes and SNACKS. Sometimes I walk through the grocery and am still amazed at the number of options for potato chips, other chips - it’s astounding. This has changed dramatically over time. There were not multiple aisles for sports drinks and snacks. I also remember when portion sizes ballooned. Most restaurants serve double what was served in the ‘70’s. “Snacking”/fancy coffe/indulgences - this has become an expected part of ones day where in the 70’s, kids might have had fruit and/or cookies and milk or popsicles in the summer in the afternoon but it was a quick occuranc or non-event and adults did not really partake - they just ate 3 meals. Botton line - There are just SO many food offerings these days. [/quote]
